And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Imagine the history these items could tell if they could talk.
Hm....I thought it was a store room for the equipment they use in the Star Wars movies.

If I worked there, I'd be tempted, late at night, to go and see if I could find one that fit, and they shout "Molon Labe!"
DeleteI suspect the story they would all tell is similar: DAMN! Another Arrow to the chest. No one saw that coming.
